Hi (I know it's a little 2 late, it's already in year 2007!!),
-I'm looking for an isometric game programming in AS2 (I thank God
I found this, seriously..:lol: !!).
As I've read some tutorials about isometric tile, I haven't found
this in your 'public function updateMap', class IsoMap, for example:
it._x = x - y;
it._y = (x+y)/2;
Instead, I found ax and ay as the coordinate in isometric space.
Are these (x-y, (x+y)/2) to have the same x/y to appear in isometric
view??
-I was confused, also, by the other classes . Is there any of your
tutorial that's written without the scrolling thing, um, the simpler
one(:oops: ha!!)?

Thanks! (Yuri)

Hi, I am an Actionscript teacher in Boston and need some help with a students project that is an isometric game that is getting beyond my capability to help. If you know of any Isometric Flash whizzes in the Boston area I would be grateful.

thanks,

Chris

This is really nice. We made a simular product called ISOstudio. However it works with Macromedia Director. Maybe you can get some ideas from what we did to help what you have. http://www.isointeractive.com/products/isointeractiveStudio/demo_01.htm

Hi,
Have you heard about Andre-Michelle's Gamepackage project? http://www.gamepackage.org/ Maybe you'd be interested in helping out?

I made a slightly modifed version where you control the cube with the keyboard arrows, and you can't move through walls.
